Restore archived tasks, fix dashboard scroll-reset, bind ornith, add Playwright smoke test

- **Restore 82 completed tasks** from tasks/complete/ back to tasks/ top
  level (all <7 days old per the cleanup policy; premature bulk archive
  was fixed).
- **Dashboard: fix scroll-reset on auto-refresh** — renderBoard rebuilds
  the board via innerHTML every 2s, destroying each column-body's
  scrollTop. Now snapshots column-body scrollTop + board.scrollLeft +
  view.scrollTop before rebuild and restores after (matched by
  PHASE_GROUPS index).
- **Dashboard UI additions** (pre-existing unstaged work): approval
  section cards, transition buttons, inline artifact editor (textarea for
  writing missing SPEC/VERDICT/etc from the detail modal).
- **Bind ornith as Implement model** — config.md: Model explicit to
  omlx/Ornith-1.0-35B-4bit-mlx, context window 32768. Interactive
  autopilot already used ornith via opencode default; now explicit.
- **Fix cleanup stub** — automaton-cleanup.sh had a stale --project arg
  pointing at a pytest temp dir (test isolation leak). Rewired to point
  at ~/.automaton.
- **Fix plist-isolation test** — test asserted host plist doesn't exist,
  but a real install creates it. Now snapshots mtime before run, asserts
  unchanged after (only a write during the test counts as bleed).
- **New Playwright smoke test** (tests/test_dashboard_ui.py) — 2 tests:
  board renders tasks, column scroll survives auto-refresh tick.
  Verified the test fails without the scroll fix (scrollTop resets to 0).
  Skipped via importorskip when playwright is absent (main CI stays
  green).
- **Clarify SI loop scope in README** — new-project onboarding section
  documents the framework-scoped self-improvement loop and options
  (leave/pause/create project loop).
- **CHANGELOG** documents all changes including the known model-divergence
  gap (mde tasks marked complete but per-role model binding was never
  implemented).

+# Verdict: add-status-brakes
+
+**Status: PASS**
+
+The task delivers the loop-engineering brakes layer (R1–R10) entirely inside `status.py`, with no new dependencies and no second enforcement surface. It is the foundation that tasks 3–7 build on; everything those tasks need to call (`--check-gate`, `--can-continue`, `--approve --loop`, `--can-edit --loop`, `--create-loop`, `--install-schedule`, `--loop-list`, `.state.log`) is now in place and unit-tested.
+
+## Requirement coverage
+
+| Req | Delivered | Tests |
+|-----|-----------|-------|
+| R1 `.state.loop` schema | All 13 fields, atomic tmp+rename | `TestStateLoopSchema` (2) |
+| R2 `--create-loop` | kebab/dup/template rejection, name patch | `TestCreateLoop` (5) |
+| R3 `--version`, `--approve --loop` | version regex; only halt-clear; `resumed_count++` | `TestVersionAndApprove` (4) |
+| R4 `--can-continue` | running-only probe | `TestCanContinue` (3) |
+| R5 `--check-gate` (6 gates) | First-failure halts + JSON | `TestCheckGate` (10) |
+| R6 `--install-schedule` | Darwin/Linux/Windows dispatch + stub | `TestInstallSchedule` (3) |
+| R7 `--can-edit --loop [--loop-worktree]` | Root residency + file_scope | `TestCanEditLoop` (4) |
+| R8 `--transition` halt refusal | Owned-task scan | `TestTransitionHaltRefusal` (3) |
+| R9 `--audit` Cat-6 + `--loop-list` | Runs even when no tasks; untracked/halted flag | `TestAuditAndList` (6) |
+| R10 `.state.log` tick trail | ISO timestamps | `TestTickLog` (3), `TestPauseResume` (3) |
+
+Total: 46 new tests. Suite: **310 passed** (was 264 + 46 new). No regressions. `python3 -m py_compile scripts/status.py` clean.
+
+## Defense against the five loop deaths
+
+- **drift** → `_gate_worktree_drift` (R5)
+- **runaway** → `_gate_iterations` (R5)
+- **bad verifier** → `_gate_score_plateau` (R5)
+- **resource burn** → `_gate_budget` (R5, remote-only informational)
+- **undetected halt** → R8 transition refusal + Cat-6 audit + gate halt-write
+
+## Harness / OS / model agnosticism preserved
+
+- All surface reachable via `status.py` subprocess + `--json`. No harness-specific code. Works with opencode or any harness (D8).
+- `platform.system()` dispatches launchd/cron/schtasks; missing tools degrade gracefully (warn + skip, not crash). D13 honored.
+- Framework never inspects model capability/size/provider — `--loop-mode` already refused sub-16k in task 1; this task does not consult any model field.
+
+## Doc impact landed
+
+- `AGENTS.md` Harness Integration modes block extended with the `--loop` worktree-scope mode (mode 5).
+- `AGENTS.md` new "State Enforcement — Loops (v1)" section.
+- `README.md` new "Loop Engineering (beta)" subsection with quick-reference commands.
+- `CHANGELOG.md` `[unreleased]` entry for the brakes layer.
+
+## Hardening items deferred (tracked)
+
+- A6 `fcntl` lock on `.state.loop` → v1.1.
+- A2 `--claim-loop-task` atomic ownership → task 3.
+- O3 `blast_radius.base_branch` drift parameterization → task 5.
+- O4 `_enable_schedule` Linux parity → task 5 / v1.1.
+
+All four are explicit follow-ups in `BUG_REPORT.md` and `ADVERSARIAL_BUG_REPORT.md`; none block this task.
+
+## Resolution
+
+**PASS — proceed to `complete`.** Task `add-status-brakes` is the foundation for the loop v1 implementation. Tasks 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 can now be unblocked, each relying on the standardized `.state.loop` schema and the brakes gates this task ships.
